Pizza Dough Recipe

Ingredients

500 g plain white flour

1/2 tbs fine sea salt

1 tbs dried yeast

1 tbs castor sugar

2 tbs extra virgin olive oil

325 ml warm water

Preparation

Mix together the warm water, yeast & sugar in a glass bowl. Leave in a warm place for the yeast to activate - about 15 minutes.

In a planetary mixer (Kitchen-Aid type) with the dough hook attached, mix together the flour, salt & olive oil.

Add the yeast mix into the mixer bowl, and knead together for at least 5 - 7 minutes, until the dough ball has become shiny & elastic.

Put the dough in a bowl, covered with a damp towel in a warm place for 1 hour for the dough to proove.

Roll out the dough into 2 pizza bases.
